Manchester City will return to the Premier League from tomorrow after a long break. He will occasionally face Leeds United on the road at 9 p.m. A match that Guardiola’s band will have to win to get closer to the leader, Arsenal.
Riyad Mahrez’s teammates are preparing to return to the Premier League. Tomorrow they face Leeds United away. A match that has a very important cachet, where they will make sure to come back with the three points to reduce the gap on the current leader Arsenal. The Algerian international talks about this important meeting.
“We will have to play hard against Leeds. it’s a big club and it’s always difficult to play there. We know what awaits us… We will be prepared for this duel and we hope to be able to leave with the three points”. He will say, in a statement given to the official Manchester City website.
“We want to be leaders of the Premier League quickly”
Currently, it is Arsenal who is installed on the chair of the leader of the Premier League. But Mahrez and consorts will quickly want to dethrone the “Gunners”, taking control on the board. The least that can be said is that the captain of the national team says he is ambitious to win a third championship title for the third time in a row, despite the tough competition with the other contenders for the coronation.
“Currently, we are not leaders and yet this is where we want to be. We’re going to take it game by game but our goal is to win the Premier League again.” he asserted.
And to add: “There are many very good teams in England which can claim the title of championship. We are not only focusing on Arsenal, even if they have been good since the start of the current financial year…If we want to be champions, we must be ready as soon as the championship restarts”. He concluded.
Remember that Riyad Mahrez was a scorer in the last match against Liverpool, as part of the 1/8th final of the League Cup. A match won by the citizens with the score of 3 goals to 2. It remains to be seen now whether he will start tomorrow night against Leeds United.
